Optional Charger Indicators, Symbols and Meaning (Model BC330)
If the indicator lights are "OFF", the
charger is not receiving power from power
supply outlet.
If the green indicator
light is"BLINKING", the
battery pack is being fast-
charged. Fast-charging will
automatically stop when the battery pack
is fully charged.
The lithium ion battery is protected against
deep discharging by the "Electronic Cell
Protection (ECP)". When the battery is
empty, the tool is switched off by means of
a protective circuit.
The battery is supplied partially charged.
Completely charge the battery before
using your tool for the first time. The
lithium ion battery can be charged at any
time, without reducing its service life.
Interrupting the charging procedure does
not damage the battery.
Plug charger cord into your standard
power outlet, then insert battery pack into
charger (Fig. J).
The charger's green indicator light will
begin to "BLINK". This indicates that the
battery is receiving a fast charge. Fast-
charging will automatically stop when the
battery pack is fully charged.
When the indicator light stops "BLINKING"
(and becomes a steady green light) fast
charging is complete.
The battery pack may be used even
though the light may still be blinking.
The light may require more time to stop
blinking depending on temperature. When
you begin the charging process of the
battery pack, a steady green light could
also mean the battery pack is too hot or
too cold.
Charging Battery Pack (Model BC330)
-15-
If the green indicator light
is"ON", the charger is
plugged in but the battery
pack is not inserted, or
the battery pack is fully charged, or the
battery pack is too hot or cold for fast-
charging. The charger will automatically
switch to fast-charging once a suitable
temperature is reached.
J
The purpose of the green light is to
indicate that the battery pack is fast-
charging. It does not indicate the exact
point of full charge. The light will stop
blinking in less time if the battery pack
was not completely discharged.
When the battery pack is fully charged,
unplug the charger (unless you're
charging another battery pack) and slip
the battery pack back into the tool.
